We believe the cardholder's chargeback is NOT valid at this time as the customer's order has been canceled and refund issued on 1/3/23. We would like to ask for your consideration to reverse the dispute in our favor and allow us to resolve the issue directly with the customer first, as the customer's immediate concern has already been addressed and catered to, and is not due any more refund.

I ordered flooring from Super Arbor and paid $2,819.17 via a credit card. My order number is #*****. The payment was made on 6/16/2022. To date no flooring has been shipped to me and the request for a refund has not been fulfilled. I have found these folks to be deceptive and fraudulent in all of the dealing I have had with them. My research reveals that this pattern of business is common for Super Arbor. They need to be closed and prosecuted for the manner in which they cheat customers on a regular and sustained manner.Business Response

We believe the cardholder's chargeback is NOT valid at this time as the customer's order has been canceled and refund issued on 11/28/22 but due to an error with the payment processor, the refund didn't go through. We would like to ask for your consideration to reverse the dispute in our favor and allow us to resolve the issue directly with the customer first, as the customer's immediate concern has already been addressed and catered to, and is not due any more refund.Customer Answer

We do not accept this response. Super Arbor has been asked to issue the refund to a new card which replaced the old card due to theft. To date, they have not cooperated with our request and not credit has been processed. The lack of consideration to me, the customer is unacceptable. This company should have the business license revoked and forbidden to conduct any form of commerce.Initial Complaint

I placed an order for tile on September 6th with a 4-6 week ***. I reached out in early October and was told the tile was on schedule for end of October. Mid October I asked for a tracking number and they informed me that it would be delivered on the 1st or 2nd week in December. I understand that things happen and at this point i wasnt too upset. They reached out in late November to ask me for an additional $200 which i paid in good faith to get my order moving. I reached out several times in early December, by email and phone with no response at all. I believe i called the ************** 3 times and left a voicemail once. I also email them at the previous contact email 6 times in the month of December. I started a chat on the website to see if that form of communication was better and someone responded, letting me know that the *** on the order was now mid February. I told them that i wanted the tile by end of January or a full refund and they informed me that they dont refund special orders. Now i am sitting here waiting for this company to deliver tile that was supposed to arrive in October and i cant even get my money back..... I feel like they sold me something that they cant get and stole my money! Why dont they always sell something that they cant get so that they can keep peoples money?! Its crazy! I dont mean to be dramatic but this is crazy and im very frustrated at this point. I have no faith that the tile will be delivered in mid February as they have informed me.Business Response

I still do not have a date for this order. Seems extremely sketchy and unprofessional to ask me for additional compensation for freight on a product you haven't located. I would like to be informed of a hard delivery date by end of week and I expect that delivery date to be before the end of February or a full refund. I don't believe this to be an unfair request. I won't hold my breath considering it took a month to respond to this complaint.Initial Complaint

I write to initiate a claim against Super Arbor, doing business online as superarbor.io. I am owed $145.15 for two items that I purchased on May 3, 2022 but never received. I have been writing to their customer service for 7 months and have been promised multiple times that they are working on my refund. I have yet to be issued the goods I purchased or my promised refund, and they have now stopped responding to my e-mails. The details surrounding this order can be found below. I would sincerely appreciate your help in resolving this issue promptly. This company appears to repeatedly be committing business fraud. Thank you for your attention to this matter.The details: I ordered three items (two boxes of tiles, an impact driver, and a set of tools) on May 3, 2022 for a total of $262.12, incl. shipping and tax. Shortly after the order, I received a message stating that I owed an additional $53 for the impact driver, as the price for the driver had gone up. I asked them to honor the original price for the driver, as the price had gone up after I completed the transaction, and when they stated they couldn't do that, I asked them to cancel the entire order. They responded stating that they could not cancel the order, as the tiles had already shipped. I asked them to cancel the remaining order (for the impact driver and tools), which I never received. They said they would issue me a refund, but it has never come. I have followed up repeatedly to no resolution. It has now been 7 months since my original cancellation request, and I have received neither the original items I had purchased or my refund for those two items.Attached please find the original purchase confirmation from SuperArbor, the invoice I received from them after the purchase that asked me to cover their price increase, and my exchanges with their online customer service department regarding the cancelation and refund requests.Business Response

Dear BBB, I apologize for the delayed response. I note Super Arbor's response, but unfortunately, they have not contacted me or issued a refund to me. They have been saying they escalated the issue since late May 2022, when I first asked for my refund for the items that were never issued to me. This issue is not resolved. In fact, they continue to defraud me, holding my money, and use delay tactics. Can you please re-open this issue?Initial Complaint

I completed a transaction with this company September 11,2022. I reached out in October I was told a 3-5 week time-line for shipping, I immediately requested a refund since then I've been told the same thing that their team is processing my refund and I should receive it in 3-5 business days ots now December I reached out on the 23rd as well as today and was told the exact same thing. This company is stealing money from innocent consumers.Business Response

We believe the customer's complaint is NOT valid at this time as the customer recently opened a dispute via their card provider on 1/1/2023. A formal response has already been submitted to the customer's card provider and until we receive a resolution, we ask for your consideration to close this complaint as the customer's concern is already being addressed directly with the customer's bank. Typically, any refund is put on hold when a dispute is opened and until a resolution is reached.

On about Nov 8 2022 I ordered some flooring from Super Arbor. The confined my order and showed a shipping cost of $39.99. On Nov 17 they sent me an email requesting that I authorize $499.99 shipping. On Nov 21 I called them and requested that my purchase be cancelled. I also sent an email requesting such. Since then it has been an endless battle for me to get my money back for an order they never shipped. They are wanting a "restocking" fee for product that never left their warehouse. I feel this is an unethical and dirty business practice. I request your assistance in getting my credit card refunded.
Thank you.Business Response
